Arte

The Hispanic Alliance promotes a wide variety of art exhibits, ARTE Program, in its downtown New London exhibition space, where it also hosts artists' talks, presentations and lectures. While showcasing Southeastern Connecticut as a cultural destination, our goal is to open new avenues of intercultural dialogue through programs that integrate Latino Culture with the works of both regional and international artists.

Featured Artist currently on view: ANDRE CHAPARRO

Andre Chaparro's work is currently on display at the Hispanic Alliance Gallery, 165 State Street, New London. The artist is strongly inspired by jazz music: "As an artist it is important for me to continue to grow spiritually, emotionally, & intellectually, and reflect that growth in my artwork in a very honest way.I think my technique was one I developed through this process of creating and evolving as a person and artist". This Spring Chaparro is headed to the Middle East, specifically Kuwait, where he has been invited to exhibit.

Through the proposed Imagine Public Art project the Hispanic Alliance will be creating an innovative program to exhibit art in open spaces throughout New London County. Imagine Public Art will contribute to making Southeastern Connecticut a cultural destination and give its inhabitants a sense of pride and identity.
